I do the cross-compiling with Docker now. I do this because since we've
added the YAML dependency you need to cross-compile YAML too, and managing
all this in a Docker container is a bit easier.
This is the Dockerfile we use for that: https://github.com/liblouis/
liblouis/blob/master/Dockerfile.dev
We also have two new Make targets:
make distwin32
make distwin64
Our next release will include a precompiled Windows binary of lou_checkyaml
that actually works (currently it says "Skipping tests as libyaml was not
found"), so that people like Bue can use it to test their local table
changes.
Hope this helps,
Bert

Have you tried running them in Cygwin, https://www.cygwin.com/ ? I got
tired of MSYS and MSYS2 and went back to using it.

Hi,
It would in deed be nice if the yaml tests could run on Windows. My
development and testing could then be done altogether on Windows. However,
I don't know how well the yaml library runs on windows.

LibLouis no longer cross compiles for Windows on Linux using MinGW. It
cannot find the yaml library.
